0645H - Lane's Truck Stop, Lund, NV
38 miles south of Ely we've topped up with race fuel and are on the pre-grid where all 135+ cars sort themselves out before a final drive to the grid area at the starting line. The cruise down was uneventful and a nice way to warm everything up and sort through some last minute strategy with Jimi.

Final Grid - Highway 318
After a short drive from Lane's Truck Stop we're gridded on Highway 318 waiting for our turn down Highway 318. Nothing to do now but finalize our plan and put on our safety gear.
Our strategy is to run the first 2/3 of the race 'fast' and bank some time before hitting the narrows where we'll slow down to just under 100 mph before finishing the last 10 miles right on our target time of 115 mph.
